@de_Sechelles @francois_bouron exactly; we expand and create satellite republics while our own government is in shambles and napoleon focuses on war 😒 #frOSU17

[GeorgesJacquesDanton @GJDanton89]

I admire Napoleon for returning and taking power, but was it really needed? More expansion and war are going to destroy the people. #frOSU17

[GeorgesJacquesDanton @GJDanton89]

@JS_Bailly I agree. Trying to expand in all directions is proving ruinous for France... #frOSU17

[GeorgesJacquesDanton @GJDanton89]

Ah, nationalism.Though Prussia used it against us, I have to admire its use bc it reminds me of our revolution & its goal #frOSU17 #blaufarb

[GeorgesJacquesDanton @GJDanton89]

Lives were lost for nothing. Tears were shed for nothing The monarchy is back and our efforts were wasted #forrest #frOSU17

[GeorgesJacquesDanton @GJDanton89]

@de_Sechelles I fear that having one man in total power will be terrible for the people; look at where we are after Louis and Robespierre.... #frOSU17

[GeorgesJacquesDanton @GJDanton89]

When you put the king to death but crown an emperor eleven years later #frOSU17

[GeorgesJacquesDanton @GJDanton89]

Though I may disagree with many of his aims, Napoleon has done good for France with the French Civil Code #frOSU17 #mason

[GeorgesJacquesDanton @GJDanton89]

He says "emperor of the French," I say that he is a king. The old regime cannot return #lecture #frOSU17

[GeorgesJacquesDanton @GJDanton89]

The revival of religious practice is against our revolution... the clergy cannot become as powerful as it once was #mason #frOSU17

[GeorgesJacquesDanton @GJDanton89]

@j_cazales @SieyesJoseph For one, Napoleon wouldn't have been able to become the leader of a major expedition if it wasn't for the revolution, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[GeorgesJacquesDanton @GJDanton89]

Capturing Giza is a testament to France's power and the spread of freedom. Let the Egyptians be free from their Mamluk oppressors! #frOSU17

[GeorgesJacquesDanton @GJDanton89]

We must not lose sight of helping the common people! (2/2) #lecture #frOSU17

[GeorgesJacquesDanton @GJDanton89]

The Revolution started with grain shortages, and now people cannot buy bread to feed their families due to rising prices. (1/2) #frOSU17

[GeorgesJacquesDanton @GJDanton89]

@SieyesJoseph @j_cazales To bring back the monarchy would undermine everything we have worked so hard to accomplish #frOSU17

[GeorgesJacquesDanton @GJDanton89]

I regret resigning from the Committee of Public Safety; Robespierre let our vision get out of control & doomed our people #frOSU17 #lecture

[GeorgesJacquesDanton @GJDanton89]

If Napoleon can remedy the disorder that our terror has left behind, I fully support him and his campaign #frOSU17 #blaufarb

[GeorgesJacquesDanton @GJDanton89]

RIP me 💀👻

[GeorgesJacquesDanton @GJDanton89]

And so ends the life of Danton. France, never forget what I have done for you and keep daring. Never stop fighting for justice. #frOSU17

[GeorgesJacquesDanton @GJDanton89]

@Etta_Palm17 @danton Well, I'm not dead yet, but I see little hope unless I'm broken out of jail 😔 #frOSU17
